Older men vs Younger boys in gambling, Which enjoys Gambling for fun the more?

[Fivestar4everMVP]

Hi gamblers,

So, a particular discussion on the gambling board which I am part of; actually put this question into my head, and I thought I should ask the gambling community here, so we could possibly have some fun discussion it.

And the question is very simple, Between the older men (talking of from 60 years old and above), and younger men (talking of from 18 to 45 years of age) which of this category of men actually gamble for fun the more?

If I was to answer this question, I did say that the older men are more likely to be gambling for fun, than the younger men, and this is due to several reasons which I am not going to mention yet, but will see users who share in this same view of mine will be able to also come up with same reasons.

So, feel free guys and ladies, lets discuss.

Older men enjoy gambling more because they are more experienced they've been to a lot in gambling and they are well disciplined, they are more stable financially so they can play as much as they like, and they are more of a thinker in gambling and have control in their bankroll.

Compared to younger boys who are too aggressive, they are more explorers because they want to make money because they are not financially stable, they are more likely to be depressed and fall into gambling addiction, so they cannot enjoy gambling because they are finding a way to succeed in gambling.

The worst experience we had in gambling was when we were still young, this is the time when we experimented and tried all kinds of stuff to make us win and this can cause us to lose a lot of money, and this is not enjoyable, in my own experience when I was just starting at a young age was where I encountered all problems related to gambling that I cannot enjoy gambling.

Okay! from my perspective its the older men. Yeah for some reason which I will list below, I believe they gamble more for fun than the younger men:

[1] The older men from 60 years and above gamble more for because at that age this people tend to be fulfilled already. having achieve a level of status they may not longer be interested in making so much money as the younger men would do.

[2] At the age of 60 most old men will only be in search for what makes them happy in order to enjoy they're retirement and the remaining days of their lives. while the younger men will be in search for what will also make them happy too but most time what ever isn't bring or adding money to a young man's wallet isn't making him happy already.

[3] At the age of 60 the older men have less responsibility to carry so wouldn't have any more intention on anything else. but for younger men at the age of 45 and below always have this pressure in them that makes them go extra miles on everything, and most time the older are also included in the pressure of younger men. e.g when your dad is retire the children now has the responsibility to take good care of them so the younger men had much to do than the older men. since gambling offer both fun and funds the younger men will indulge in it for the both reason and older men will for just one reason which is fun.

I hope this three reason of mine will blend in with everyone's reason.

Those who plays more simply enjoys it more regardless of age. There are older people who will testify that they enjoy gambling a lot because it consumes their time given that are mostly out of their jobs and that they are not doing most of their days. On the other hand, young ones are busy doing their job and are just being able to gamble on their free time. What I know is that if there's a will there's a way. On all ages, one would do things just to gamble if they are really into it or just addicted of the activity. Bottomline is the definition of fun. You could have fun of something along with stress, as long as there's more of joy with the experience. I guess it is safer to say that no age will determine the "fun" a gambler would experience from gambling, but rather, the gambler him/herself will do so.

You'd end up stressing regardless of your age if your gambling habits ain't that sustainable and profitable on your run and same thing goes with enjoyment and entertainment into it.

It is the older men that gambles more for fun. They don't have anything to do anymore and that's what they're living their lives being at that age. They've got more money as well because they're retired and probably have a lot of wealth through their working and professional days.

Whilst for the younger ones, they're on the side of accumulating and working for their future. And they've got a lot of distribution of their money and it's hard to start honestly. So, if it's just for having fun then there is no doubt that it is the older folks that gambles for fun.

They wouldn't mind losing today and going back again tomorrow in the casino and have some fun again. You'll see a lot of retired folks trying to do the things that they've missed during their younger days.

[Solosanz]

Obviously older men because they don't care anymore about money. Younger boys know they need to make a lot money as young as possible, wear a branded clothes, drive a lambo, go to night party and get drunk. All of them needs money and they need to show everyone if they're successful.

But for older men, they know they don't need validation anymore and they will life with the life that they want without even care with other people's opinions.

It cannot be categorized by age because each person economy and life will be different.
If they are rich, billionaires and successful business people, then at any age they will definitely only gamble for fun.
Likewise, if they are gamblers whose background is people who are economically disadvantaged and financially unstable, then it is clear whether they are young or old, they will have the goal of gambling as means of making certain amount of profit.
This is real thing and the attitude and purpose of gambling for fun or not will have more influence on economic factors and also mindset, not about age, but it would be highly recommended for anyone with any condition to gamble just for fun.

Having the goal of gambling to make money is not easy and making money from gambling is very bad mindset and approach.
Bad in terms of the impact that will arise and be experienced by them.

I believe that the older men who must have finished raising their children and there is not much financial burden on them can be argued to play the game for fun more than young guys, reason being that most young people are still under great responsibilities for their parents, siblings, family e.t.c and there are still much financial expectations, so most of them play to meet those needs and only have fun when they are having wins.

The older men on the other hand have less of these responsibilities and are under less or no pressure to meet up certain needs. They can loose their funds and get relaxed about it as they can request for funds from their kids anytime or they may be on stipends already from their children added to their retirement benefits, and at this time, if gambling really is their thing, they engage with much joy and relaxation.

Just like you, I guess older man only gamble for fun since they already dedicated a lot of their time on gambling to become stay foolish for a long time thinking that gambling is a source of income.

I knew a lot of old gambler that is just gambling to kill time because they have nothing to do in their house due to the fact that they are already retired. They view gambling as hobby and I doubt young gen like us can do that since we are still aiming to earn money for our life which is very hard on not to mix it when gambling.

although I think the topic is subjective because enjoying gambling isn't really based on people's age, but, I am leaning more towards older men, I mean, older men are more likely to be financially stable than their younger counterparts and far more mature and responsible than them. also, from what I have observed from old people from my years of playing bingo, they use this gambling activity to socialize with their friends.

I would like to base my answer on my experience I'm older now and have experienced my worst in my youth when I was just starting to gamble, I was very adventurous back then, trying all methods even going to the point of taking a loan and lying to my parents so they can add more in my allowance so I can increase my bankroll, my younger version has experienced a lot of bad things it's not an enjoyable time to gamble.
Now I am more relaxed because I have seen and done it all and I know the facts about gambling so I can truly enjoy gambling now more than in my youth, experience is the best teacher, especially in gambling.

Definitely, older men especially those who have been gambling for years have matured enough already. They know how to manage the risk, and most probably they are just having fun, or if they are serious they have their own approach also. Young men whom mostly are not financially stable, they seem to make bad decisions since they are inexperience, and they are just in the learning process on controlling their emotion.

When you are more matured, you know how to control your emotion, and you won't be aggressive, which is the opposite for young gamblers, at least I know a lot of young gamblers who act like that.

I personally cannot assume and compare from the categories you mentioned, because it requires data from the number of old gamblers and the number of young gamblers that must be used as analysis data if your answer wants a scientific approach, and I have to make a questionnaire to many gamblers from these two gamblers to see the exact data.

If I make a personal assumption without a scientific study, this is relative in my opinion, because both young and old have their own desires, because there are also many young people who have fun in gambling and vice versa for old gamblers, so in my opinion this is not concrete. Thus, if you approach it through the nature of youth, which is more burning, it is likely that youth will gamble to get a win than make a happines.

Yeah, this the correct to find the right answer to this kind of question although this will be helpful if this thread becomes more on a survey that states our preferences on this subject including our age to produce a valuable data when it comes to this discussion.

I find this topic interesting because many said that old people think gambling as they can play for fun but I’m still young yet I’m playing like the old guys which is just for fun. I believe it’s not about the age but rather the financial status of someone and of course their reason why they gamble.

when it comes to who loves gambling more and making comparison between the older or younger men, it would have been easy to say that it all depends on the individuals involved but in reality, we see that most young men tend to look at gambling as a means to an end and because they feel they are good in analysis of games, they normally gamble hoping that they will get a win at the end of the day. The older men on the other hand because of this level of experience and exposure might not really look much into always getting a financial incentive from the gambling and might just do it to keep themselves busy and catch up on old memories.

Outside of this, enjoying gambling is totally a personal thing and a younger or older person can love or choose not to even gamble at all

Permit me to simply reference my answer to this question with a similar answer which I already provided on this thread - "I see young gamblers as very impatient. They want to secure the bag by all means including gambling so they lead an unhealthy and irresponsible gambling lifestyle. They do what I call, impulse gambling. Once the thought crosses their minds to gamble, they go ahead to do it. When they see their friends post or talk about gambling, it becomes the trigger for them to gamble. They think they can double their monies through gambling and keep the profit, so they go ahead to gamble. For the older adults who are more experienced and have seen it all, they have the money but not the time because they have sent the whole of their youth working hard to make money and now they see gambling as a way to spend the money and have a good time."

Lets be honest, the old men are most likely to be having a glass of a vintage wine with their Tesla, Bentley or any of those classic cars parked outside of the casinos. These folks are the filthy rich multimillionaires or even those who have retired and just want to have a good time. I know that there are exception to this but they are very little.

[Richbased]

Yeah OP I stand on same side with you that older men gambles for fun more than the younger ones because at as that age they've accomplished almost all their dreams in life like building house(s), having a business or company of their own, finished training their children and some other achievements and at that time, they just feel like a time of relaxation waiting for when nature will call them so that period is supposed to be fun period for any man who planned his life very well from young age because if you don't actually plan yourself well when you are young, then the consequences awaits you in old age so someone who doesn't plan his life well and at old age is still involved in gambling then i can say that they ain't gambling for fun because all their focus we be on winning and a situation where the winning isn't coming forth, then they may run into depression or even have HBP (high blood pressure) because they won't be happy and they would be seeing their selves as people who have failed to meet up life obligations.

It is important for the younger ones to plan their future now that they are hail and hearty rather than live lavish or careless life that they would live to regret during old age as time doesn't wait for anyone and the time is now to make positive decisions that will be of good impact to their life tomorrow. Gambling isn't that bad as some persons sees it but it's dependent on ones approach towards gambling that makes it look bad and moreover gambling can make someone and also downgrade someone so it is everyone's duty to gamble responsibly, don't take loans to gamble as you may run into series of debts that you may keep paying till your lifetime. If every gambler was to gamble responsibly, no one will see gambling as something that is bad and people shouldn't be involved in. While playing gamble make sure you didn't deprive yourself, your family and your loved ones the care, attention and support they require from you and by so doing you will actually be gambling for fun during old age.

I started gambling when I was still young until now. Maybe I'm already gambling for 20 years and I can say that I'm already old now,lol. But I'm still enjoying gambling. The only difference now is the financial situation I am in is that I am more stable compared to when I was younger.

My bets also change, before when I was young, I could bet like $5 to $10 and I'm already happy, now it increase to the level of $50 to $500 per bet, and that I would be able to find the excitement in gambling, and just like other gamblers too, I also feel upset temporarily when I lose.

[Sim_card]

Older men enjoy gamble the more than younger men. This is because the older men are done with their hustling and now they are relaxing and don't have much things to occupy their time, so whenever that they want to gamble, they have all the time to do so. Old men have already overcome the problem of addiction, and they now understand that gambling is for fun and not for profit making. This make them use gambling to pass time and keep themselves away from boredom. They are also good managers of their bankroll because they don't have much that they will use money for, since their children can take good care of them.

46-59 I guess gamble for fun.  

Old men I think gamble more for money. Unless they are rich men already but the old men who have families, they gonna gamble more for money so they can give it to their sons and grandson before they check out of this world.

Seriously, I think it's not really about the age. It's on the status of a person. men who are single and have no one to support are likely the ones who gamble for fun. Happy-go-lucky men.

Edit: On the second thought. Why do we always insist that people gamble for fun? There is always motivation and reason why people do something. The only reason why someone would gamble for fun is if he is trying to impress a woman beside him.
